Julian declared that I would stay as the project manager, so after we arrived in the yard at half nine I put him in charge of dressing the mast while I got on with sorting out the cabin. He occasionally called me to have a look at what he was doing and this seems to have worked well as a way to make sure things are in the right place. Monday, when the mast goes in will be the proof of the approach! It would be good not to have to go up the mast this year. We had a picnic lunch, then headed back to Ullapool mid afternoon for a cup of tea to celebrate the mast dressing being complete.

The cabin is now ready for reoccupation, just as well since we are sleeping aboard tonight.
The only electrics that got completed before we stopped for the night were the reconnecting of the port and starboard navigation lights, so we went to bed by the light of battery lanterns rather than Robinetta’s own lights. Not a problem.
